I love p-laying as France yet still suck too much to get this achievement. Ireland is no problem getting into but how the hell can I get into Norway ASAP?

You don't even need Norway if you can't. Just eat Ireland, Scotland and England, then Aragon etc. Focus firstly on little low dev provinces though
Take the claims bordering claims age ability as your first age boon, the sooner the better. You can take Ceuta from Portugal to satisfy the present on two continents condition, humiliate someone, get Paris quickly to 30 dev, these are the easiest objectives to satisfy for more splendor generation. Upgrading CoTs is also manageable if you take money from secondary participants.
With claims bordering claims you can quickly get around Europe into low dev provinces and easier opponents, and in the meantime you expand into the usual suspects: Ireland, Scotland, England and all of the Iberians.

But Castille takes a lot of manpower to beat. Even Aragon does.
I can´t see a way of doing the achievement without going for the nordics.

Scotland borders Norway. So you don't even have to no-cb anyone to eat into the nordics. Just conquer Scotland. Although, I really don't see wars against Denmark, Norway, Sweden, and whoever Denmark allies as any easier than wars against either Castile or Aragon. Ally one of them, and you can promise land to get them into war with the other. Hell, Aragon gets excommunicated somewhat frequently, so you can even take land from them for very low AE if you get lucky.
I wrote an AAR about BBB achievement some time ago. It is a little old, having been played in 1.29.6
Maybe it can give you some ideas on how to get this done in the current version. Check my sig, Open BBBaar.
